Deltaplan dementia

The cooperative Deltaplan for Dementia is the Dutch national platform to address and manage the growing problem of dementia. Together with our member organisations in the field of science, research, healthcare institutions, patient organisation, healthcare insurance, education and business, we aim for better lives for people with dementia and their families and to create a barrier against the effects of dementia.

Deriving its name from the Dutch water works that protects a large area of land from the sea, Deltaplan dementia works closely together with private and public members based on three important pillars; research, healthcare and a dementia friendly society.

Next to our national strategy Deltaplan Dementia aims to focus on international collaboration. As a cooperation we strongly believe in international collaboration to tackle this world-wide challenge and growing problem.
